What people say

Don't waste your money

Was gifted a 3 month subscription. First box arrived 3 weeks late (supposed to be here by Xmas 2024) and needless to say we were abysmally disappointed to see that our very first box was FROM THE UK!! A place that's literally famous for having the worst food on the planet!! What's next?? Monkey brains from the Amazon?? I believe that one of the 8 items was edible and when I say edible I mean my dog even turned her nose up at the rest of it. Truly a PATHETIC showing for a company. Not to mention that their website is full of reviews claiming payment accepted but boxes not delivered. 4.1 is a bad look brah. Don't waste your money with these 🤡

Loved the idea, not the ingredients

Loved the idea. I saved up to purchase an annual subscription, hoping it would be a fun activity to bring the whole family together. Upon receiving our first box & reviewing the ingredients, my husband & I decided not to introduce the kids to these products. Our second box was received today & the ingredients are even worse, to the point where we're quite unsure whether or not we're even willing to try them. Artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, MSG, modified everything ... ugh, it's all in there. I was given the impression that these would be quality ingredients, but they feel like Americanized versions of the originals. Maybe they are from the stated country of origin, but if so, they are definitely not the quality we were led to assume they'd be.

So worth it!! Best gift I’ve purchased!!!

I originally purchased a Yum Box for my husband for Father’s Day 2024. It was something we’d never tried before and the thought of getting to try snacks from around the world curated in a cute box with lots of history was very intriguing. The price was just right, so I thought we’d give it a try. Not only was it an amazing gift for him as he loves snacks, and treats (As most of us do, Right?) But it turned into a magical gift for our family. Each month when the box arrives, myself, my husband and our three teenagers (m18, f17,f15) set aside an evening Where we’ll all be at home to open the box together. We go down the list systematically and try it at the same time. We give our honest opinions once they hit our mouth and I can tell you the reactions have been across the board and so fun! It’s fun to see who likes what and it’s been fun to discover new flavours that we had no idea existed. My initial thought was to have this for two or three months, but it has become such a staple family activity that I can’t imagine a month when this isn’t going to be a fun family activity for us to do! If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s amazing and I highly recommend it!!

Fun time spent with my kids & grandson

I ordered this to try to get my grandson to try new things and it has worked for the most part (there are still some things he refuses to try). I take the box to my sons, and I get to spend time with my son, daughter-in-law & grandson trying new things. We even went from the mid-size to the large box because we all enjoy it so much. Now we don't like everything in the boxes, but most things do get finished.

"FREE" Advent callender my ash

I have been sending the largest Yums Christmas boxes to family for a few years. Usually betwen 3 and 5 boxes each year. This year, they said order $99+ and get a free Advent Calendar. Well I ordered FIVE of the large Christmas boxes at $53.00 EACH. That's $265.00 plus tax. But they refuse to send the Free Advent Callendar to me because none of the individual orders was over $99. Their basic response was "too bad, so sad". No attempt at making it right. They are losing a long time customer. I will find another outfit to order from next year.

YUM yums a great success

A Universal Yum Yums package is great! My grandson is so excited to open the package and taste test each goodie. It has made him WILLING to try new snacks. The Italy box was too many almonds sweet biscuits but they are perfect with us adults coffee. His favorite so far has been South Korea's wide range of spicy, sweet, savory, etc. Another sign he likes this is he REFUSES to SHARE with his friends at school. So I sometimes order the extras as a second delivery. I think the pistachio popcorn from Africa? was great.

Anxiously Await Our Box!

I signed up for Universal Yums after the I had our first and date nights out were more difficult. We love getting it every month! I make dinner on theme to the country and we pick a movie on theme as well. It makes it extra special! Some of our favorite boxes have been the ones we weren’t sure what to expect!

Guessing the tastes

It is fun for my partner and I to look at the packaging and wonder what each might taste like before we open and test to see if we were correct. The package arrives with all the items safely packaged. We enjoy the information and the sheet for our judging.
